Clone only strains

I am pretty sure C99 was the result of several generations of backcrossing. Wouldn't the male pick up a lot of the mother's genetics through several generations?
There are
This is the first cab I ever built, I sold it a long time ago.

Got my 2 new clones today. Grape Ape and Purple Cadillac.
Popped them in some coco/perl.
That is great! I am glade some one could take care of you. I will link up some good eads on breeding if you want. Let meget my grow taken down and harvest in jars first but i can point you in the right direction.

Cubing is not a solid breeding practice AJ, and few breeders still do this anymore. With every bx you cut your chances of representing the mother by half.
You sure about that? I'm thinking it's just the opposite. Every male that is slected in succesive gernerations will have a larger and larger percentage of the original females genetics. With every bx more of the mother will be represented.

IMO people do this as a way to turn a reasonable seed stock as fast as possible. That does not make it good practice. If you look at breeding off plants not mj there is a standard for stabilizing of a hybrid and it is not cubing.

I really don't know much about it. It may not be the best way to breed per se, but wouldn't it give you the best chance to lock down a specific females characteristics in regular seed form? Each succesive backcross would carry with it more and more of the mothers genetics.

@Sativied knows his shit with this stuff. Maybe he can school us a bit......

Fatfingering my tablet, so will keep it short: read my posts on the last page of that cubing a myth thread. :)

Although chimera already somewhat corrected himself, he didn't include the key info in his explanation, he is referring to plant (singular) where it has to be plants.
